The next day wasn't any easier for becky and freen, if anything it was scarier than before.

becky was getting a screening to see if the cancer cells were getting smaller or spreading, both girls felt like they were going to throw up for anxiousness.

"Call them freen"
becky said sternly as freen was rubbing her thumb over the top of becky boney knuckles.

freen looked up at becky almost lifeless, "what?"

"You need someone here with you, I'm worried about you"
becky responded in the same tone as before, obviously not in the mood to argue but stating what freen should be doing.

"Okay"
freen said in a sad voice as she stood up to go make a call in the hospital hallway.

As freen left the room she heard becky coughing, it made her wince, she felt so bad for her.

As the phone rang freen felt a lump in her throat, she hated having to ask for support.

tara her older sister answered shortly,
"Hey girl, everything okay?"
freen lips trembled as she held back the tears
"I need you guys to come to the hospital."
freen heard a crash on the other side of the phone, tara had probably dropped whatever she was doing, "we're coming"
tara exclaimed from the other side of the phone before hanging up.

When freen walked back in the room, becky was getting prepped to leave and freen could feel her heart sinking in her chest.

becky peeked through the nurses helping her at Ian
"they coming?"
freen nodded, trying not to show becky how distraught this entire situation was making her.

The nurses turned to freen who was pale and scared looking, one of them finally addressed her
"You two want a minute before we take her?"
freen nodded and walked toward becky as the rest of the room waited outside,

"I love you, this will be good news becky, I can feel it."
freen wasn't 100% confident with that fact but she had read that she needed to be positive and help becky during this process so she was trying her best to be strong for her.

'Come here"
becky signaled for freen to bend down over the bed and he gave her a long kiss,
"I'll be alright."
freen nodded and becky smiled,
"I love you too sarocha"

freen weakly smiled back before squeezing becky hand softly.
Then freen went to get the nurses and tell them they were ready for becky scan.

After the two said their goodbyes freen waited in the waiting room, flipping through an old magazine and bouncing her legs up and down.

freen kept looking toward the sliding glass doors for her family and friends when suddenly she saw them dog pile inside the hospital.

Every single everyone was there, even heng which surprised freen.

kade, mind and nam all looked like they had been crying and song and tee looked worried.

Finally song spoke "Well?"

freen explained what had been going on as everyone sat down with her and waited for the results.

After everything had been explained and everyone was making small talk kade took a good look at freen
"Are you hungry freen? When's the last time you ate?"

freen shrugged as she rubbed her temples, obviously exhausted.

song had noticed how awful freen looked but he didn't want to be the one to point it out, so she was grateful when kade said something.
"song and I are going to get you some food"
kade stood up and her and song walked to the hospital cafeteria.

freen was so grateful her people were there with her but couldn't stop thinking about becky being alone there.

tara hugged freen and let her lay on her shoulder; she was always motherly like that.

Freen opened her eyes, trying to control her heavy breathing. She felt like she was suffocating because of that nightmare that made her heart tremble.
She looked around and saw that everyone was looking at her with concern... tara had tears falling with wide eyes looking at her sister who was panicking.

"WHERE IS SHE? WHERE IS BECKY?"
freen asked who was around her holding her heart... everyone was trying to calm her down but she was out of her mind

Suddenly two nurses were standing in front of freen, they understood what she was going through, they just smiled
"she's alright, she just got out of the scan, would you like to see her?"

freen turned to her family and friends and told them she wanted to go see becky alone really quick before they came in, they nodded as they sat back down.

kade gave a shaken up tara a hug, she was crying, she had never seen freen cry like that before.

When freen walked into the room and saw becky lying down in his hospital bed freen ran over and hugged her...
she couldn't stop crying.

becky was shocked by freen reaction to her
"babe what's wrong?!!"

freen could barely breathe, she was choking on her own spit from crying and was hyperventilating but she managed to say a couple of words,
"nightmare ... you.. You"
and she lost it, she was crying on becky chest.

"Hey look at me"
becky grabbed freen face and faced her girlfriend toward her, wiping tears off of freen freckled cheeks.

freen eyes were swollen and red, but she looked at becky still trying to gain composure.

"I'm not going anywhere... I promise you that, breath baby, everything will be okay "
becky smiled as freen face looked confused.

"You can't promise something you have no control over"
freen spoke back, still trying to catch her breath.

Finally a nurse interrupted the two as she walked in the room,
"did you tell her the news yet Ms. Armstrong?"

freen looked over at Mickey with big eyes,
"what news?"

becky smiled as she was excited to tell freen something good to see her happy and calm her down
"I got approved for the surgery, and we're getting the rest of this cancer out of me."

freen hugged becky and kissed her over and over, before popping up from the bed
"I'm going to go get everyone!"

becky laughed as freen shot out of the room, hoping that the surgery would actually get rid of everything but... it's not easy like what it's seem but yeah,
not trying to ruin the moment,

becky decided she was going to stay positive because that's what freen wanted and needed.
